JetBlue Loves The NYPD

It seems JetBlue has taken a liking to the New York Police Depart and the New York Fire Department.  Former police officers and firemen are proving to be excellent hires as flight attendants.  Let’s see…. they have vast experience with John Q. Public and all their frustrating behaviors, they are calm, cool, and effective in emergency situations, and they have a leadership demeanor.  I guess JetBlue’s wayward employee who popped the emergency chute will have some tough competition in getting his job back!

Hate The New Carry-On Fee? – Here’s A Chance To Get It Back

One manufacturer of a convenient travel accessory (Armpocket.com) is as upset about the new carry-on fees levied by Spirit Airlines as you are!  To ease the angst, they are offering to fully credit travelers who have paid for carry-on luggage during the month of August.  Travelers who have flown Spirit Airlines and have been charged the $30 extra carry-on fee, should Tweet @Armpocket during August (2010) with proof of charges to receive a complimentary Armpocket Xtreme 30 (valued at $30) while supply lasts.  Armpockets are convenient strap-on pouches made of recycled materials that easily hold a cell phone, MP3 player, keys, wallet, passport, and other necessitites.  Seems to me these would be great to use while going for a jog as well!
